Does anyone have a cooling upgrade for the ‘06 2.8L?

I’ve just done an upgrade on my WJ and would like to do the same on my KJ if there is one.
I live in a hot humid climate and that’s make any cooling system struggle.

Thanks,

Doug (Skipper)

1. Upgrade cooling fan and clutch to heavy duty GM 11 blade fan and fan clutch. Greatly improves cooling air flow especially at lower speeds.
See picture 1 w/info below.

2. Remove Viscous Heater assembly and replace unit with a bracket and idler pulley. Not needed in hotter climate locations. See picture 2 w/info below
*I can provide you with a delete kit, message me if interested.

Awesome! Thank you, pretty much the same as the WJ except using GM parts instead of Ford.

I was aware of the viscous heater delete which I will do in due course.
